cyberfox2004 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Be the first to comment!Beta test MSN Messenger 8.0 with Yahoo integration Posted By Bink on October 19, 2005 at 9:37 AM Microsoft today released a site to sign up for the MSN Messenger 8.0 Beta program. This next generation version Messenger will include Yahoo! integration allowing for users to talk to people who are on the Yahoo! IM client. All you need to do to sign up is click the link below and insert your e-mail address into the box and click the buttom. You can change the last two letters on the URL to go to your specific language. You'll notice that the site is at the URL imagine-msn.com, which is owned by Microsoft. Microsoft will then e-mail people who signed up later this year with instructions on how to download the beta.

HoochieMamma Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 It has, and I signed up ONLY to get 2 of my suggestions though. 1: 3 Way Webcam!!! 2: Auto Update edit: Anyone else in the beta please suggest these 2 features aswell. We need more FUNCTIONALITY and NOT more winks/nudge crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spongedor Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 the link for the sign- up doesn't work.. it just brings me to the messenger website.. the regular messenger (not 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screeny Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 the link for the sign- up doesn't work.. it just brings me to the messenger website.. the regular messenger (not 8) 586695619[/snapback] Yeah, doesn't work anymore... strange. Seems that Microsoft changed the link - they don't allow you to sign up for the beta yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geo Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 It wasn't ready (probably nor active), no point getting n00bs excited over nothing, so it's been removed :p (smartass guess) Microsoft today released a site to sign up for the MSN Messenger 8.0 Beta program. That's total BS, someone just changed the 'hotmail' to 'messenger' in http://www4.imagine-msn.com/minisites/hotm....aspx?locale=en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MulletRobZ Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Does anybody know when Yahoo is going to launch a beta of their IM with MSN integration? Because if I can use only my Yahoo account and simply add MSN contacts, I'm deleting my MSN account for good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry mate, but there's more people on earth than you can think of. I'm from Romania and everybody I know uses Y!M ... so do my friends from Germany, France, Italy and Spain... so that could make me think no one uses MSN and that MSN is not good at all? But wait ...
